FAQ
What is ARKE?
Bionik Laboratories' ARKE is a robotic lower-body exoskeleton that enables paraplegics and other wheelchair users to rehabilitate through walking; it adapts to the patient's ability, gives real-time feedback to physiotherapists, and (in later generations) supports voice-activated modes.
Is ARKE actually deployed in the real world?
ARKE is at the research stage: it exists, but DEPLOY has no verified real-world deployment on record. Manufacturer capability claims should be read as claims pending independent verification.
What are the specs of ARKE?
ARKE's recorded specifications on the DEPLOY registry: Runtime: 1 h; Weight: 14 kg. See the Specs section for the full sourced set.
Who makes ARKE?
ARKE is made by Bionik Laboratories, based in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Can you buy ARKE?
ARKE is at research stage and is not yet available for sale.
What are alternatives to ARKE?
On the DEPLOY registry, comparable exoskeleton robots to ARKE include Ant-H1 Pro, Cyberdyne HAL, German Bionic Cray X, HANK.
How does ARKE compare to Ant-H1 Pro?
ARKE and Ant-H1 Pro (Kenqing Technology · 5 deployments) are both exoskeleton robots on the DEPLOY registry. ARKE has 0 verified deployments on record. Compare both records for specs, safety, deployments, and verified-vs-claimed autonomy.
Is ARKE a top exoskeleton?
On DEPLOY's intelligence score, which blends verified deployments, safety, adoption, media, and IP signals, ARKE ranks in roughly the top under 1% of exoskeleton models tracked by the registry.
What is ARKE's maturity stage?
ARKE is at the research stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder (research, prototype, pilot, commercial, production). Research stage means active development without commercial deployments on file.
Where is ARKE deployed?
No verified deployments of ARKE are currently on the DEPLOY registry. DEPLOY records deployments only when verified at a named site with a primary source; absence may reflect pre-deployment, research, or manufacturer-internal use.
Is ARKE safe?
ARKE has no incidents on record in the DEPLOY registry. This does not constitute a safety guarantee; it reflects the incidents DEPLOY has tracked and verified to date.
What is the Bionik Arke exoskeleton?
The Bionik Arke is a robotic exoskeleton used for stroke rehabilitation. Researchers have developed systems that virtually link therapists and stroke patients through robotic exoskeletons, allowing therapists to guide rehabilitation remotely. Robotic exoskeleton suits provide earlier mobility and restored independence for stroke survivors.
